LOL - good one! How's Ohio treatin' ya!

So anyway, yes, I agree with the state's decision on this. For reasons others have already said. So grateful to live in Florida!

In this regard they might be...but only based upon a 3 city sampling...and those might be just keeping their homeless away from tourist areas...unsure.

So exactly what IS your solution to this homeless problem? I've seen plenty of attacks and accusations on your part of posters whose comments you don't like or agree with, but real solutions? How about it?

For instance, what do you do about those homeless individuals who refuse to follow even basic rules to live in those corrugated metal boxes or tiny homes you suggested, or who repeatedly vandalize or destroy the property set up to accomodate them. How about the crime, drug addiction, mental illness that is rampant among the homeless ( no, they aren't all criminals or drug addicts, but they're bound to be affected by this behavior). Believe me, people who actually do deal with the homeless have to face these and a myriad of other issues and it's not as simple as putting up a bunch of corrugated metal boxes or tiny homes and thinking you've solved the problem of homelessness.

Can you answer those questions without another snarky response or personal attack?

If they really do a better job of handling homelessness than we do in the US, IMO it'd be a great idea to get pointers from them.

Europe doing things better than the USA ain't new; let's start with the fact that Euro countries don't allow consumer goods companies and grocers to PRICE GOUGE! Let's also start with the fact that they don't allow those companies to poison us with crap food/ingredients also!

Let's end with the fact that there's more homeless on one block in Los Angeles than there are in the entire city of Paris!

You know things are bad in the USA when more Americans are moving to Mexico than are Mexicans coming to America!

That's the way Paris is handling it.....relocating the homeless out of town

https://www.euronews.com/2023/12/11/...less-community

"In 2022, there were approximately 50,000 homeless people housed in hotels nightly in the Ile-de-France region, where Paris is located,"

https://www.cnn.com/2023/09/26/europ...0organizations.

" City hall says there are 150,000 people in temporary accommodation in the Paris region"

Homeless are in reality drug addicts who choose that life of taking from society and giving nothing but poop, pee and garbage in return.
